A few wonderful members tried to help me when I asked the question, "How do I find my Facebook ID#", but what they suggested just wasn't working for me. I then went searching on Google. I read a few articles that pretty much told me the same things that the members here at Wealthy Affiliate were suggesting.
I then turned my attention to the Facebook help center. Again I was seeing the same suggestions UNTIL I read a comment away's down the thread. It was different from what I had been reading. I tried what was suggested and you guessed it! I found my answer. It is so simple!
Step 1 - Finding Your Facebook ID #
- Log into your Facebook personal account (not a fan or business page)
- Hoover over your profile picture
- Right Click on your mouse
- Click on copy link address
Next up - Step 2 to Finding Your Facebook ID #

Thanks for your explanation, I have seen this question come by multiple times:) And it's not in every country the same, for one, my page info is in Dutch and looks quite different
Can you tell me if the page ID is accepted too when you have made it into a name?

Hi Loes, nice to hear from you. I clicked on your link and it does look different, even translated. I couldn't tell if this was a page or your personal profile. If it is your personal profile the ID# will not be found under the about me section. At least in the U.S.
I will let you know about the second question. I plan on trying both ways to see what happens and I will let you know what I find.
You have me thinking that perhaps I should add a disclaimer stating that the training was done from the U.S. and may be different in other countries.
Always learning new things here at Wealthy Affiliate from wonderful people such as yourself. Thank you my dear friend.

Yesterday, when you asked this question, I tried to find out how to find the ID, but did not find any useful answers... So I thought that it's in the URL and that's it...
Very good ways to find the ID! But it looks like Facebook has different looks depending on the country, I cannot find the ID in the About me settings... but will try to find it out! :D
Thanks for the training, very useful!
